Melling Primary General Election

Fri 08 May 2015 C. Miller

Yesterday election fever arrived at Melling! The twelve members of the Melling Junior Parish Council went head-to-head in a bid to be elected Prime Minister! In preparation, they had to write a manifesto, outlining a law they would like to introduce and also how they would spend a sum of £200 to make our school a healthier place.

The candidates turned out in fine form-several in suits!- sporting the rosettes of their party and spoke with conviction and passion. The whole school listened intently to the manifestoes and questioned some of the promises made! Later on, each child cast their vote and Y5, as Returning Officers, counted the votes.

The successful candidate was announced today in assembly...Kristian Myers of the Super Safety party! Huge congratulations, Kris! A budding David Cameron...or Ed Milliband...or....?

Fair Trade

Tue 05 May 2015 C. Miller

A special assembly was led by Mrs. S. Wallace of Maghull High School today to introduce our children to Fair Trade and make them aware of its importance when buying products. The children were particularly interested in Fair Trade chocolate (!), learning the journey from cocoa bean through to the supermarket. Very informative! Mrs. Wallace encouraged the children to take home the message: please buy Fair Trade products whenever you can.
